183: Tug of war
Han Huohuo guessed that there should be very few flying dark creatures. This was not difficult to judge; if there were many flying creatures, the Elves would have long been unable to hold on.
The fact that the Elves had not been exterminated indicated that their long-range flying units were too few.
So this time, he specifically brought more bombers.
No matter what tier monster you are, as long as you can't fly, bombers are a nightmare. Bombers are Tier 6 units, and under the dual buffs of Han Huohuo and Myth, their attack power has reached the terrifying strength of Tier 7, making it effortless to flatten these islands.
“Boss, what are they doing?”
Someone handed Han Huohuo a telescope. Han Huohuo picked up the telescope and saw the zombie king playing Cloud Ladder Ascend.
A group of zombie kings simultaneously leaped high, their small wings on their backs flapping desperately. Although they couldn't fly, they could jump very high. After their strength was exhausted, some zombie kings stepped on the heads of other zombie kings, stomping down hard, and leaping upwards again.
There were indeed quite a few zombie kings. Hundreds of zombie kings jumped together, and among them, more than a dozen zombie kings, stepping on each other's heads, actually flew several hundred meters into the air.
These zombie kings were extremely ferocious, quickly jumping onto the backs of the bombers in mid-air and slashing wildly with their dual blades!
Several bombers, unable to shake off the zombie kings, were cut down by them and crashed, burning fiercely upon landing.
Holy crap!
Those were bombers made of radioactive elements!
Han Huohuo felt incredibly pained.
Seeing that other Chaos creatures also started learning from the zombie king and jumping into the sky, Han Huohuo had no choice but to call all the bombers back, and then had the fleet move a little further from the coast.
He had underestimated the intelligence of these Chaos creatures. They didn't play by the rules, and these monsters all had small wings. Although they couldn't fly, their gliding and jumping were still extremely high.
Han Huohuo hesitated for a moment, not wanting to fight head-on, and decided to change tactics!
He drove the fleet back, this time re-equipping Apocalypse Tanks instead of bombers, and also brought hundreds of frigates filled with fighter jets.
I'll use the Apocalypse Tank's Magic Storm to kill you Chaos.
When the fleet came over for the second time, Han Huohuo found that the Moths had reappeared, and in the same numbers as last time.
They respawn quite fast, huh?
Didn't the battles from the past few days count for nothing?
Han Huohuo had no choice but to fight the Moths again, but this time it was a bit easier because he brought more of the fleet.
Two amphibious assault ships approached the shore, and the Apocalypse Tanks on the deck began to bombard the island from a distance, with the Magic Storm raging violently across it.
Lightning, thunder, heavy rain, fire, dust.
The Magic Storm wreaked havoc.
Although Magic Storm is a Tier 4 magic, it couldn't withstand the sheer number of Apocalypse Tanks. Instantly, the entire Boli Reef became dark, and the sun was obscured.
These Chaos monsters were also speechless. What kind of enemy was this? Too despicable!
Chaos monsters only had ground and air forces, no navy. These guys came from fire, and water itself was their biggest enemy.
This time, for the range of the Apocalypse Tanks, the fleet moved even closer to the coast. Some super monsters began to jump into the air, trying to leap across the sea and onto the ships to fight.
Han Huohuo had already anticipated this yesterday.
He ordered all naval guns to open fire simultaneously, and fighter jets to take off at the same time, launching a fierce assault on these airborne monsters, catching the Chaos monsters completely off guard.
Many monsters howled as they fell into the sea.
Yesterday, it was because the bombers penetrated deep into the island for bombing, and both the navy and air force couldn't provide rescue. This time, luring these Chaos monsters to leap out proactively made it much easier.
Han Huohuo hadn't expected this battle to last for several days.
He didn't know how many Chaos monsters he had killed. Although the tactics this time were very effective, having gained the upper hand and suppressed them, these monsters would quickly respawn in endless streams after dying, which was incredibly frustrating.
The most frustrating part was seeing the chaos coins drop on the island, unable to be retrieved, and quickly disappearing. Not to mention those that fell into the sea.
Han Huohuo felt like spitting blood the more he fought.
This battle was truly exasperating!
While the situation was tense, someone reported that Jack wanted Han Huohuo to come to the Black Pearl, as he had something to discuss with him.
Huh?
Jack is looking for me?
When Han Huohuo arrived at the Black Pearl and saw Jack's appearance, he knew why Jack hadn't come to him directly but had asked him to come to the Black Pearl.
The Black Pearl was shrouded in black mist, now looking like a Ghost ship, and Jack was almost transparent, with a skull on his head.
“You… finally turned into an Undead?” Han Huohuo thought for a moment, “How about, when I return to the mainland, I’ll find some top-tier Magicians to help you see if your curse can be lifted?”
Jack shook his head, “No need, it’s actually fine. I was a bit unaccustomed at first, but now I’ve gotten used to it. Although I have no sensation and all human pleasures are gone, I also don’t feel pain. I plan to sail away with this ship after this mission ends, to see places my ancestors never went.”
Han Huohuo sighed, “It’s just that this mission is too troublesome. I didn’t expect these Chaos monsters to be so difficult to deal with, and they respawn endlessly. I don’t know what to do now.”
Jack looked at Han Huohuo, “I know, you actually have no interest in eliminating these devil-like monsters. You just want to take a treasure from Boli Reef, right?
If your goal is to eliminate these monsters, I can’t help. But if you just want to take a treasure, I do have a suggestion.”
Han Huohuo asked curiously, “You have a way? Tell me about it?”
Jack walked to the bow of the ship, pointing to the distant Boli Reef, “Lord, look, although this reef area is very large, there are many waterways inside. Your large ships can’t enter, but my Black Pearl can, especially now that the Black Pearl is already a Ghost ship, becoming extremely nimble, it can take you deep into Boli Reef.”
He turned to look at Han Huohuo, “As for those Chaos creatures, you can suppress them with firepower so they don’t affect our treasure hunt. Once we get the treasure, we leave. What do you think?”
Han Huohuo also walked to the bow, looking at Boli Reef. The waterways inside were extremely complex. The Black Pearl, now almost an Undead ship, might indeed be able to sail in. It was a bold idea, and also very dangerous.
Just as he was hesitating, the System suddenly chimed, “Ding.”
“Congratulations, Lord, you have reached Level 40.”
“Please choose a skill: Intermediate Water Magic & Intermediate Fire Magic.”
There was no difference between these two skills. Han Huohuo casually chose Intermediate Water Magic. The intense bombardment of the past few days had failed to capture Boli Reef, but the only gain was a large amount of experience points, unexpectedly leveling him up.
Han Huohuo turned and jumped into the sea. Jack was a little disappointed, thinking Han Huohuo was afraid to go, and felt a bit contemptuous of him.
Unexpectedly, Han Huohuo stepped on the water and said loudly, “What you said makes a lot of sense, I think it’s feasible, but I need to go back and prepare. We’ll act in a few days.”
